Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to the field of mechanical control, in particular to a smart acoustic information recognition-based welded weld impact quality determination method.


DESCRIPTION OF THE RELATED ART

As an indispensable part of the manufacturing industry, welding is developing from low-power, low-precision and low-quality welding to high-power, high-precision and high-quality welding. Among them, the stress treatment after welding is completed in the entire high-quality welding process. China is particularly important. The uneven temperature field after welding will lead to uneven stress distribution in the weld, thereby reducing the yield strength and fatigue strength of the weldment, and severely causing serious consequences such as weldment deformation and weld cracking.


Among the existing methods for eliminating residual stress in welds, the ultrasonic impact method is the best method. Strike technology is an efficient way to eliminate harmful residual tensile stress on the surface of the component or the weld area, and to introduce method of benefiting compressive stress. Ultrasonic impact equipment uses high-power energy to push the impact head at a rate per second the frequency of about 20,000 times impacts the surface of metal objects, and the high-frequency, high-efficiency and large energy under focus make the metal surface produces a large compression plastic deformation; at the same time, the ultrasonic impact changes the original stress field, producing beneficial compressive stress; metal surface temperature rises rapidly and rapidly under high-energy impact cooling changes the surface metal structure of the affected area and strengthens the impact site.


The processing speed, pressure, angle, steel type, thickness and other factors in the operation of the ultrasonic impact method determine the quality of the ultrasonic impact method, but these factors are difficult to measure and quantify during the operation. Because the time-frequency domain characteristics of the ultrasonic shock sound signal during operation contain a lot of information, these sound signal characteristics are a comprehensive manifestation of external factors during the operation and determine the quality of ultrasonic shock. The quality of the ultrasonic impact acting on the weldment seam directly determines the degree of residual stress relief in the weld seam. Therefore, it is urgent to find a method for judging the impact quality of post-weld welds based on intelligent acoustic information recognition.
